LCD Soundsystem have finally succeeded at getting tickets into the hands of people other than scalpers. The group's four warm-up gigs at Terminal 5 went on sale this morning at 9 A.M. and, to the delight of many a James Murphy fan, took almost an hour to sell out completely.

LCD, I kiss the ground you walk on! How did they put restrictions in place? I hope every band will follow LCDs lead. Scalpers are lower than dirt.
